History Trivia / NinpuuSentaiHurricaneger

* As revealed in the net movies for ''Film/KamenRiderXSuperSentaiSuperHeroTaisen'', ''Hurricaneger'' actually owes its existence to ''Franchise/HarryPotter''. Around the time when Potter-mania was first reaching Japan, a Toei staffer came up with the name "Hurricaneger" by playing around the Japanese title for the first book ('''''Hari''' Potta to '''Kenja''' no Ishi''); the rest of the plot elements were conceived based off of the name.

Reason: Are you really taking something that's said in the net movies at face value?

* HeyItsThatGuy** Shurikenger takes the cake here; his human faces are ''all'' former Sentai actors. On top of that, many of them did ''their'' poses when possible.** One variation: Ohba Kenji's former roles ([[Series/BattleFeverJ Battle Kenya]] and [[Series/DenshiSentaiDenziman Denzi Blue]]) didn't have poses. He instead does the Series/SpaceSheriffGavan pose.* HeyItsThatVoice** Shurikenger's voice? [[spoiler:It's [[MakeMyMonsterGrow Spellmaster]] [[BattleButler Pierre]] from ''[[Series/RescueSentaiGoGoFive GoGo-V]]''!]]** Sargain (at least his full armor voice) is voiced ''and'' acted by Yoshinori Okamoto, who's had his share of playing ''Franchise/SuperSentai'' villains like [[Series/DengekiSentaiChangeman Buuba]], [[Series/ChoushinseiFlashman Bo Gardan]] and [[Series/ChoujuuSentaiLiveman Dr. Ashura]].

* Also in ''Ten Years After'', Nanami's idol career was reaching its sell-by date, so to speak, and her manager was asking her to consider doing a HotterAndSexier production. Which Nao Nagasawa ''already did'', in Koichi Sakamoto's DTV movie ''Dimension Travellers''.

** In ''Ten Years After'', Ikkou's musical group apparently includes Yusuke Tomoi; they tell the audience he's apparently home with the measles and certainly not off fighting monsters as a green superhero -- which he did ten years before as [[Series/KamenRiderAgito Kamen Rider Gills]].

Added DiffLines:

* NoExportForYou: Neither this, nor its western counterpart ''Series/PowerRangersNinjaStorm'', were dubbed in Korea. The common speculation is that both series were skipped because depictions of ninjas are culturally taboo in Korea. In reality, when the decision was made to dub ''Super Sentai'' in Korea over ''Franchise/PowerRangers'' (as they have been doing since ''Series/MightyMorphinPowerRangers''), they skipped to ''Series/BakuryuuSentaiAbaranger'' since ''Super Sentai'' is at least a year ahead of ''Power Rangers''. Ninjas are not as taboo in Korea as Samurais are, which is why ''{{Naruto}}'' airs there without any problem.** Then again, when it came time to find a replacement for the very taboo ''Series/SamuraiSentaiShinkenger'', ''Hurricaneger'' was skipped again in favor of the one before it, ''Gaoranger''.*** Despite the fact its counterpart Series/PowerRangersWildForce had already been dubbed!** MarthDebutedInSmashBros: Hurricanger is included in the ''[[Series/KaizokuSentaiGokaiger Gokaiger]]'' dub, [[MarketBasedTitle Power Rangers Captain Force]].
